I've herd good things about the Mickey thompson MTZ...

I run the ST studded on my work truck and they are absolutely great in the snow and the spring mud, also they are wearing very well and are on their second season. They are taken off in late spring.
I am running the ATZ on my personal truck and they are a great tire, I went with them over the MTZ due to more siping for traction on hard pack snow.
Both the Coopers and Mickey Thompsons are being run on '08 F-350 diesels and are worked hard on both trucks. Take care...Jeff
I'm having really good luck with the Goodyear DuraTrac.
It's a studdable tire as well.

I ran the Mickey Thompson MTZ on my 05 cummins and could not get them to balance for the life of me. They were a 315/70/17 load range D with a 3150# rating. Don't let that fool you if you tow, as the sidewalls aren't sufficient for our weight.
I run the bfg AT Load D in the same size on my 07, but in the winter I put the stock wheels/tires back on as I tow/travel alot.

I have 325/60/18 Hankook RT03 10 plys on my 01 F-250 stroker. Little noisy but 3 summers on them so far and hardly any wear. I probably have another 3-4 years of tread. One thing, drop the pressure down on them, without a load I run 35 in the rear and 45 in the front. Pulling a load I run 45 in the rear. Im not easy on my truck at all either, I love to play.

I'm running the Hankook ATM's on my Dodge Megacab so far 10K on them and they are wearing like iron. Not really a mud terrain but a A/T with a ton of siping on them. So far so good with them quiet on the road and they track really well.

I've had awesome luck with my RT03's on my Tahoe, best tire I've ever owned. I run 35" 12.50 17's. They have worn really well for a large tire.
How about price?Whats good for under $300 bucks a tire?I wont even say what I paid for 37x12.5x20 toyo mt's but I need some new skins for the half tonne and a 305/70/16 will do.

Umm thats quite a bit smaller than a 37x20, lol Kumho's mud tires are nice.

Another vote for the studded ST's. Ran them for several seasons on work trucks and ran a set on my personal truck. I found the STT's while "cooler looking" and better in the mud, wore out much faster on the gravel and were really horrible on ice. (I don't run aggressive tires on anything now....Cooper summer radials and Cooper MS studded winter tires....the ol' El Camino stays on the pavement.)
